    I know, right!?! :happy102:

    BTW, my sister gave me a bar of the Veran bath soap. She likes masculine scents, but that one was too much for her. Score for me--I love it :D

    IS your sister someone who might say "Hey, lose that sexy Aqua Velva, willya"?

    She originally purchased the Veran for herself. It would be great if the same thing happened with Aqua Velva--I killed mine off last week ;)

    Well, tonight was yet another stellar Stirling shave! This time it was with Sandpiper, and I have to say that I am really growing to enjoy this scent more and more. This shave was with a brand new blade, which can make for a slightly rougher shave at times, but it was smooth sailing through and through! Also, I once again hydrated my lather beyond my normal level and was impressed by just how much water Stirling can take - not every soap can handle this much water, but it results in such a slick shave!

    All in all, this has to be one of my favorite shaves thus far, and that is saying something!

    It's been my favorite Stoylin ever since the sample Sandpiper jumped out at me compared to the other 3 in that set.

    Hi, I heard that Stirling Soaps is discontinuing Obsidian. Is that true, Rod @ezlovan?

    Oh OK, thanks Joe. My sister keeps trying to talk me into getting Facebook, but I say "I have TSD.....that's enough" :).

    you know, I didn’t see this coming, but it could end up being my favorite too! Time, and many more amazing shaves, will tell... :)

    A huge thanks to Nico at Barbieri Uniti in Italy. Due to his efforts, the overwhelming majority of shave soaps, aftershaves, and post shave balms made by Stirling are now registered and certified for sale in the European Union and the United Kingdom. Barbieri Uniti will be the sole wholesaler for the EU, as they have borne all the up front costs. We should be able to have Stirling in stores in multiple European countries this Fall.
    Dave at Shaving Time will be the sole distributor for the United Kingdom, as he has been a loyal friend and business partner for us for years.
    It took far longer than we'd hoped, but we're all excited to finally be able to have our products certified for sale in the EU. I'll post more information as we get closer to Autumn.

    That really is fantastic news, and not just for Stirling--going to be some happy folks in in the EU and UK, too :D

    The email newsletter said it won't be back next year. That doesn't necessarily mean gone forever though.
